Billie Eilish and Finneas took home the award for Best Original Song during the 2024 Golden Globes for their work on the Barbie soundtrack with the song, “What Was I Made For?” In the category, they competed against two other songs for the movie. They included Dua Lipa’s “Dance the Night” and Ryan Gosling’s “I’m Just Ken.” Other nominates were Bruce Springsteen’s “Addicted to Romance” for She Came to Me, and Lenny Kravitz “Road to Freedom” for Rustin, as well as Jack Black’s “Peaches” for The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
“I was not expecting this in that moment,” she said. “It was exactly a year ago almost that we were shown the movie. And I was very miserable and depressed at the time. Writing that song kind of saved me a little bit. A year later, here we are and I feel incredibly lucky and grateful.” After a brief glance, she added: “You guys scare the living hell out of me, everyone in this room,” before departing the stage.
